Details of Colorado Rockies and the Ticket Luck value

The rocky mountains of Colorado personify in baseball as the Colorado Rockies. They have been one of the prominent members of the Western Division and have made their presence felt in the National League. They are one of the leading teams of MLB based in Denver, Colorado.

In 1991 the National League announced that Denver and Miami, Florida will be the next sites for the two expansion teams that will start playing in 1993. In 1993, Colorado Rockies officially started playing for the National League. The other franchise of the expansion plan Florida Marlins also started at the same time. Once they were on the right track, they started making their picks from the other teams. "David Nied" the celebrated pitcher of Atlanta Braves became their first choice. He pitched for four seasons till he moved to some other NL team. "Eric Young" made Colorado Rockies debut home at bat game unforgettable by hitting a home run. Andres Galarraga, the first baseman for Rockies struck an average of .370 in the first season to win the batting title.

In 1993, the Colorado Rockies kicked off their debut season from the Shea Stadium. The first contenders were the baseball moguls New York Mets. Their first victory in was at their opening home game which was held at Mile High Stadium. Their opening few years for the team were struggle more than bearing any fruits just like the other expansion squad from the same period. The popularity of the franchise irrespective of their struggle was quite strong; their best home attendance was four million for the season which was a record in itself. Despite their grey days, Colorado Rockies was the best performing expansion team from the lot with 67 wins.

Things started picking up pace once they traded in Walker. He supported the team in a way that helped them fight a better battle. The team was started being referred to as the 'Generation - R' since majority of the team members hadn't seen their thirties. Jennings was one of the key members playing at that time winning most number of games as a pitcher. In 2006, he joined Houston Astros in exchange of Willy Taveras along with Taylor Buchholz and Jason Hirsh.

Colorado Rockies is regarded as one of the highest level MLB cities 5,280 feet over the surface. The second highest city is Phoenix with an altitude of 1,085 ft. The high existing city also adds to the difficulties of the games as it becomes very hard for the competing team to field in such stadiums. The home field for Colorado Rockies has been Coors Field. This ballpark enjoys the status of being a hitter friendly park.

The Corrs Field is also equipped to deal with the Baseball tempering issues by installing a humidor. The humidor restores the baseballs to the original MLB approved size. The humidor is also an effort to create the same kinds of conditions for the ball as before the game so that both teams start on neutral grounds.

There are always chances for more home runs here due to the sea-level field. This park is considered to be tough for pitchers and unfriendly for the hitters. The efforts have been made to neutralize this effect by making a gigantic outfield. The deep outfield fences decrease boundaries and restricts the hits to singles and doubles. Thus the performance of the hitters is far better in the home ground than other fields. Their well recognized batsman Todd Helton with an average of .371 only has .294 on the road. Rockies have always been one of the top five run scoring teams of the National League. They have often been the leading teams of the league for their runs scored.

"Clint Hurdle" the manager of the team has adopted a Christian code of conduct for himself and its team. They have abandoned explicit content or music from the clubhouse of the team. They want to be triumphant and focused with the help of their religious values. If you want to become a part of their victory, order your Colorado Rockies Tickets now!
